The ultra-light sleek design of these youth vests not only looks great, but also feels great! Made of eco-friendly BioLite that's extremely lightweight and comfortable for the little ones. Features large armholes and zip closure for security. USCG approved type II. For infants up to 30 lbs. Chest: 15" - 21".

BioLite - An Eco-Friendly Alternative to NeopreneBioLite looks and feels like neoprene, but with many added benefits:• Lighter weight than neoprene. Contains no rubber foam.• Breathable material efficiently evacuates water and lets air through.• More environmentally friendly to produce. No lamination process. No Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) which reduce indoor air quality.

My grandson is 11 months old, and the previous vests we tried with him were too "stiff", zipped up right under his chin, and he was very uncomfortable. This VioLite infant vest was softer to the touch, and fit him much better. He didn't fight us when we put it on him. He wore it the first day for about 2 hours while on the boat, and was quite content. In the water it did the trick, and made his first boating experience a real pleasure.

My 6-week old grandson was coming for vacation and we needed an infant life vest. This one works as advertised. We used it when on the boat and it actually worked to swaddle him, and the pillow made it easy to lay him on the seats or deck (when moving to get out of the wind).

We bought this jacket four years ago and it has been through 2 infant/toddlers during this time. It still is in very good condition! The only thing I could even think to critique is that it would be nice if it had more of a v-neck for chubby chins but we love this jacket and will keep passing it down! Wouldn't hesitate to buy again if needed.

Very lightweight and comfortable for my kids to wear. Was not big and bulky like other life vests we've used before. The only thing I didn't love was how the flap on the back stood straight up rather than lay down. It is a nice safety feature though, if they were to fall out of boat.
